Cookery, and I truft with fome In-
tereft, not full I confefs nor legal, but

afford. Indeed, confidering your refpec-
table fituation in life, and that diffufive
fphere of knowledge and fcience in which
you are aching, it muff be exceedingly
difficult for any one, how well furn hired
foever, completely to anfwer your juft, or

the favour of you, however, to accept for
once this fhort payment in lieu of better,

TO THE
CURIOUS ANTIQUARIAN READER.
WITH O UT beginning ab ovo on a fubjeft fo
light (a matter of importance, however, to
many a modern Catius or Amafinius), by invedigating
the origin of the Art of Cookery, and the nature of it
as pra&ifed by the Antediluvians a ; without dilating
on the feveral particulars concerning it afterwards
* If, according to Petavius and Le Clerc, the world was created
in autumn, when the fruits of the earth were both plentiful and in
the higheft perfection, the firft man had little occafion for much cu-
linary knowledge: roafting or boiling the cruder productions, with
modes of preferving thole which were l etter ripened, feem to be
all that was necelTary for him in the way of Cary. And even after
he was difplaced from Paradil'e, I conceive, as many others do, he
was not permitted the ufe of animal food [Gen. i. 29 ] ; but that
this was indulged to us, by an enlargement of our charter, after
the Flood, Gen. ix. 3. But, without wading any further in the
argument here, the reader is referred to Gen. ii. 8. feq. iii. 17.

amongft the Patriarchs, as found in the Bible b, I
flhall turn myfelf immediately, and without further
preamble, to a few curfory obfervations refpecling
the Greeks, P».omans, Britons, and thofe other na-
tions, Saxons, Danes, and Normans, with whom the
people of this nation are more clofely connected.
The Greeks probably derived fomething of their
fkill from the Eaft, (from the Lydians principally,
whofe cooks are much celebrated, c) and fomething
from Egypt. A few hints concerning Cookery may
be collefted from Homer, Ariflophanes, Ariftotle,
&c. but afterwards they poflefled many authors on
the fubjedt, as may be feen in Athenmus d. And as
Dicetetics were efteemed a branch of the ftudy of me-
dicine, as alfo they were afterwards', fo many of
thofe authors were Phyficians; and the Cook was
undoubtedly a character of high reputation at
Athens f.
b GeneCs xviii. xxvii. Though their bell rep a ft s, from the po-
litenefs of the times, were called by the fimple names of Bread, or
a Morfel of Iread, yet they were not unacquainted with modes ot
drefling flefh, boiling, roa fling, baking; nor with fauce, or fea-
foning, as fait and oil, and perhaps fome aromatic herbs. Cal-

As to the Romans ; they would of courfe borrow
much of their culinary arts from the Greeks, though
the Cook with them, we are told, was one of the
lowed of their flaves s. In the latter times, however,
they had many authors on the fubjeft as well as the
Greeks, and the pra&itioners were men of feme
fcience h, but, unhappily for us, their compofitions
are all loft except that which goes under the name of
Apicius ; concerning which work and its author, the
prevailing opinion now feems to be, that it was
written about the time of Heliogabalus ', by one Callus ,
(whether Aurelianus is not fo certain) and that Apicius
is only the title of it k. However, the compilation,
though not in any great repute, has been feveral
times publiftied by learned men.
The Aborigines of Britain, to come nearer home,
could have no great expertnefs in Cookery, as they
had no oil, and we hear nothing of their butter.
They ufed only fheep and oxen, eating neither hares,
though fo greatly efteemed at Rome, nor hens, nor
geefe, from a notion of fuperftition. Nor did they eat
fiPn. There was little corn in the interior part of the

it is exprefsly aflerted by Strabo that they had no
cheefe m. The later Britons, however, well knew
how to make the bell ufe of the cow, fince, as ap-
pears from the laws of Hoel Dda , A. D. 943, this
animal was a creature fo effential, fo common and
ufeful in Wales, as to be the ftandard in rating fines,
&c. n.
Hengifl, leader of the Saxons, made grand enter-
tainments for king Vortigern °, but no particulars
have come down to us ; and certainly little exquifite
can be expected from a people then fo extremely bar-
barous as not to be able either to read or write.

Some have fancied, that as the Danes imported the
cuftom of hard and deep drinking, fo they likewife
introduced the practice of gormandizing, and that
this word itfelf is derived from Gormund , the name
of that Danifh king whom JElfred the Great per-

Now Vis certain that Hardicnut (lands on record as
an egregious glutton r, but he is not particularly fa-
mous for being a curious Viander ; ’tis true again, that
the Danes in general indulged exceffively in feafts
and entertainments5, but we have no reafon to ima-
gine any elegance of Cookery to have flourifhed
amongft them. And though Guthrum, the Danifti
prince, is in fome authors named Gormundus 1 ; yet
this is not the right etymology of our Englifh word
Gormandize , fince it is rather the French Gourmand ,
or the Britifh Gormodn. So that we have little to fay
as to the Danes.
I (hall take the later Engl ifh and the Normans to-
gether, on account of the intermixture of the two
nations after the Conquefl, fince, as lord Lyttelton
obferves, the Englifh accommodated themselves to the
Norman manners, except in point of temperance in
eating and drinking, and communicated to them their
pwn habits of drunkennefs and irpmoderate feafting *.

both William I. and Rufus made grand entertain-

paunch, and withal was fo exaff, fo nice and curious
in his repaRs% that when his prime favourite Wil-
liam Fitz-Olberne, who as Reward of the houfehold

highly exafperated, that he lifted up his RR, and
would have Rrucken him, had not Eudo, appointed
Dapifer immediately after, warded off the blow b.

hilltops from itd. He was under the Dapifer, as was
likewife the Coats Dominica Coquina, concerning
whom, his affiftants and allowances, the Liber Niger
may be confulted e. It appears further from Fleta ,
that the chief cooks were often providers, as well as
dreffers, of vi&uals f. But Magifter Coquina , who
was an efquire by office, feems to have had the care
of pourveyance, A. D. 1340 s, and to have nearly
correfponded with our clerk of the kitchen, having
authority over the cooks h. However, the Magnus
Coquus, Coquorum Prapofitus, Coquus Regius, and
Grans Queux, were officers of confiderable dignity in
the palaces of princes; and the officers under them,
according to Du Frefne, were in the French court
A. D. 1385, much about the time that our Roll was
made, c Queus, Aideurs, Afteurs, Paiges, Souffleurs,

though under the Cellarer k, and if he were not a
monk, he neverthelefs was to enjoy the portion of a

Church, Canterbury, the Lardyrer was the firft or
chief cook m ; and this officer, as we have feen, was
often an ecclefiaftic. However, the great Iioufes had
Cooks of different ranks"; and manors and churches0
were often given ad cibum and ad vibtum monachorum p.
A fifhing at Lambeth was allotted to that purpofe ‘h
But whether the Cooks were Monks or not, the Ma-
gijlri Coquina , Kitcheners, of the monafteries, we
raav depend upon it, were always monks ; and I
think they were moftly ecclefiaftics elfewhere : thus
when Cardinal Otto, the Pope’s legate, was at Ox-
ford, A. 1238, and that memorable fray happened
between his retinue and the ftudents, the Magi/ter
Coquorum was the Legate’s brother, and was there

Kitchener, which fee ms to anfvver to Magijler Coquina, is placed
before the Cellarer in Tanner’s Notitia, p. xxx. but this may be
accidental.

killed r. The reafon given in the author, why a
perfon fo nearly allied to the Great Man was affigned
to the office, is this, ‘ Ne procuraretur aliquid vene-
‘ norurn, quod nimis [i. e. valde] timebat legatus;’ and
it is certain that poifoning was but too much in vogue
in thefe times, both amongft the Italians and the
good people of this ifland s ; fo that this was a port:
of fignal truft and confidence. And indeed .after-
wards, a perfon was employed to tajle, or take the
a[faie, as it was called1, both of the mefles and the
water in the ewer u, at great tables ; but it may be
doubted whether a particular perfon was appointed
to this fervice, or it was a branch of the Server’s
and cup-bearer’s duty, for I oblerve, the Server is
fometimes called Preeguftator x, and the cup-bearer
tartes the water elfewhere A The religious houfes,
and their prefidents, the abbots and priors, had their
days of Gala, as likewife their halls for flrangers,
whom, when perfons of rank, they often entertained
with fplendour and magnificence. And as for the

of which we have fome upon record z, were fo fu-
perb, that they might vie either with the regal en-
tertainments, or the pontifical fuppers of ancient
Rome (which became even proverbial a), and cer-
tainly could not be dreffed and fet out without a large
number of Cooks b. In (hort, the fatirifts of the
times before, and about the time of, the Reforma-
tion, are continually inveighing again It the high-
living of the bifhops and clergy ; indeed luxury was
then carried to fuch an extravagant pitch amongft
them, that archbifhop Cranmer, A. 1541, found it

This vellum Roll contains 196 formula , or recipes,
and belonged once to the earl of Oxford d. The late
James Weft cfquire bought it at the Earl’s fale,
when a part of his MSS were difpofed of; and on
the death of the gentleman lad mentioned it came
into the hands of my highly-edeemed friend, the
prefent liberal and mod communicative pofleflor.
It is prefumed to be one of the mod ancient remains
of the kind now in being, riling as high as the reign
of king Richard II. e. However, it is far the larged
and mod copious colle&ion of any we have ; I fpeak
as to thofe times. To edablilh its authenticity, and
even to damp an additional value upon it, it is the
identical Roll which was prefented to queen Eliza-
beth, in the 28th year of her reign, by lord Staf-
ford’s heir, as appears from the following addrefs, or
infcription, at the end of it, in his own hand-writ-
ing : ‘ Antiquum hoc monumentum oblatum et mif-
‘ fum ed majedati vedrae vicefimo feptimo die mends
‘ Julij, anno regni vedri fteliciffimi vicedmo viij ab

tions in his Lib. Nig. Scaccarii, I. p. 346. See alfo three different
letters of his to the earl of Oxford, in the Brit. Muf. in the fecond
of which he ftiles the Roll a piece of antiquity, and a very great rarity

The general obfervations I have to make upon it
are thefe : many articles, it feems, were in vogue in
the fourteenth century, which are now in a manner
obfolete, as cranes, curlews, herons, fealss, por-
poifes, <kc. and, on the contrary, we feed on fun-
dry fowls which are not named either in the Roll, or
the Editor’s MS. b as quails, rails, teal, woodcocks,
fnip.es, &c. which can fcarcely be numbered among
the /mail birds mentioned 19. 62. 154.'. So as to
fifh, many fpecies appear at our tables which are not
found in the Roll, trouts, flounders, herrings, he. %
It were eafy and obvious to dilate here on the varia-
1
tions of tafte at different periods of time, and the
reader would probably not diflike it ; but fo many
other particulars demand our attention, that I fhall
content myfeif with obferving in general, that where-
f This lord was grandfon of Edward duke of Bucks, beheaded
A. 1521, whole fon Henry was reltored in blood ; and this Edward,
the grandfon, born about 1571, might be 1401- 15 years old when
he pi efented the Roll to the Queen.

niefles, which we meet with in Apicius ; Dr. Lifter
very fenfibly replies to his ftridtures on that head,
4 That thefe meffes are not immediately to be reje&ed,
« becaufe they may be difpleafing to fome. E lut arch
s tedifies, that the ancients difliked pepper and the
4 four juice of lemons, infomuch that for a longtime
4 they only ufed thefe in their wardrobes for the fake
4 of their agreeable fcent, and yet they are the mod
4 wholefome of all fruits. The natives of the Weft
f Indies were no lefs averfe to fait ; and who would
4 believe that hops fliould ever have a place in our
4 common beverage l * * 4, and that we fliould ever think
4 of qualifying the fweetnefs of malt, through good
4 houfewifry, by mixing with it a fubdance fo egre-
4 gioully bitter ? Moll of the American fruits are ex-
4 ceedingly odoriferous, and therefore are very dif-
4 gufting at fird to us Europeans : on the contrary, our
4 fruits appear infipid to them, for want of odour.

the Art was of confequence in the reign of Richard,

ever, muft reft upon the teftimony of our cooks, fince
it does not appear otherwife by the fuffrage of hiftory,
that he was particularly remarkable for his nicenefs
and delicacy in eating, like Heliogabalus, whofe

peacocks and nightingales, and the brains of parrots

Richard IL is certainly not reprefented in dory as
refcmbling any fuch epicures, or capricciofo’s, as

good living was not wanting among the luxuries of
that effeminate and diffipated reign.
My next obfervation is, that the meffes both in the
Roll and the Editor’s MS, are chiefly foups, potages,
ragouts, haflies, and the like hotche-potches ; entire
joints of meat being never ferved , and animals, whe-
ther fifh or fowl, feldom brought to table whole, but
hacked and hewed, and cut in pieces or gobbets h ;
the mortar alfo was in great requefl, fome meflfes
being adlually denominated from it, as mortrews , or
morterelys , as in the Editor’s MS. Now in this date
of things, the general mode of eating mud either
have been with the fpoon or the fingers ; and this

ufual fubftitutes for it are oil-olive and lard ; the

vated in England, it mufl haye been brought from
abroad. Whole or ground-rice enters into a large

direft preparation of it.

in the time of Edward III. f and it may be true ; but
ftill no fuch quantity could be produced here in the
next reign as to fupply that very large confumption
which we fee made of it in our Roll, where it occurs
not only as an ingredient in the proceffes, but alfo is
ufed for colouring, for flouriflring, or garnifhing. It
makes a yellow, N° 68, and was imported from Egypt,

Pynes. There is fome difficulty in enucleating the
meaning of this word, though it occurs fo often. It
is joined with dates, N°2o.52. with honey clarified,
63. with powder-fort, faffron, and fait, 161. with
ground dates, raifins, good powder, and fait, 186. and
lafily they are fried, 38. Now the difh here is morreet
which in the Editor’s MS. 37, is made of mulberries
(and no doubt has its name from them), and yet there
are no mulberries in our diih, but pynes, and there-
fore I fufped:, that mulberries and pynes are the fame,
and indeed this fruit has fome refemblance to a pyne-
cone. I conceive pynnonade, the difh, N° 51, to be
fo named from the pynes therein employed ; and
quaere whether pyner mentioned along with powder^
fort, faffron, and fait, N° 155, as above in N° 161,
lhould not be read pynes. But, after all, we have
cones brought hither from Italy full of nuts, or ker-
nels, which upon roafting come out of their capjul<zb
and are much eaten by the common people, andthefe
perhaps may be the thing intended.

Honey
[ xxvi ]
Honey was the great and univerfal fweetner in re-
mote antiquity, and particularly in this ifland, where
it was the chief condiment of mead and metheglin .
It is faid, that at this day in PahJUne they ufe honey
in the greateft part of their ragouts*. Our cooks had
a method of clarifying it, N° 18. 41. which was
done by putting it in a pot with whites of eggs and
water, beating them well together ; then fetting it
over the fire, and boiling it; and when it was ready
to boil over to take it and cool it, N° 59. This I
prefume is called clere honey, N° 151. And, when
honey was fo much in ufc, it appears from Barnes that
refining it was a trade of itfelfK.
Sugar, or Sugur !, was now beginning here to take
place of honey ; however, they are ufed together,
N° 67. Sugar came from the Indies, by way of
Damafcus and Aleppo, to Venice, Genoa, and Pifa,
and from thefe lad places to us m. It is here not only
frequently ufed, but was of various forts, as cyprc ,

Cyprus, whence it might either come dire&lv to us,
or where it had received fome improvement by way

more commonly fpec.fied, and are indeed greatly
ufed, though being imported from abroad, and from
fo far as Italy or the Levant (and even there mud be
dear), fome may wonder at this : but it Ihould be
confidered, that our Roll was chiefly compiled for the
life of noble and princely tables; and the fame may
be faid of the Editor’s MS. The fpices came from
the fame part of the world, and by the fame route,
as fugar did. The fpicery was an ancient department
at court, and had its proper officers.

The common language of the formula, though
old and obfolete, as naturally may be expected from
the aee of the MS, has no other difficulty in it but
u '
what may eafily be overcome by a fmall degree of
practice and application x : however, for the further
illuftration of this matter, and the fatisfa&ion of the
curious, a fac fimile of one of the recipes is repre-
fented in the annexed plate. If here and there a
hard and uncouth term or expreffion may occur, fo
as to flop or cmbarrafs the lefs expert, pains have
been taken to explain them, either in the annotations
under the text, or in the Index and Gloffary, for we
have given it both titles, as intending it fhould anfwer
the purpofe of both y. Now in forming this alpha-
bet, as it would have been an endlefs thing to have
recourfe to all our gloffaries, now fo numerous, we
have confined ourfelves, except perhaps in fome few
inffances, in which the authorities are always men-
tioned, to certain contemporary writers, fuch as the
Editor’s MS, of which we fhall fpeak more particu-
larly hereafter, Chaucer, and Wiclif; with whom
we have affociated Junius’ Et) inologicon Anglicanum.
x Doing, hewing, hacking, grynding, kerving, & c. are eatily

y By combining the Index and GIolDry together, we have had an
opportunity of elucidating fome terms mere at huge than could con-
veniently he done in t he notes. We have alfo calt the Index to the
Roll, and that to the Editor’s Mb, into one alphabet ; cliftinguifn-
ing, however, the latter from the former.
As
[ xxxii ]
As the abbreviations oF the Roll are here retained,
in order to eftablifh and confirm the age of it, it has
been thought proper to adopt the types which our
printer had projected for Domefday-Book, with which
we find that our characters very nearly coincide.
The names of the difhes and fauces have occafioned
the greateft perplexity. Thefe are not only many in
number, but are often fo horrid and barbarous, to
our ears at lead, as to be inveloped in feveral in-
dances in almoft impenetrable obfcurity. Bifhop
Godwin complains of this fo long ago as 1 6 1 6 z.
The Contents prefixed will exhibit at once a molt
formidable lift of thefe hideous names and titles, fo
that there is no need to report them here. A few of
thefe terms the Editor humbly hopes he has happily
enucleated, but (till, notwithflanding all his labour
and pains, the argument is in itfelf fo abftrufe at this
diftance of time, the helps fo few, and his abilities
in this line of knowledge and fcience fo flender and
confined, that he fears he has left the far greater part
of the talk for the more fagacious reader to fupply :
indeed, he has not the lead doubt, but other gentle-
men of curiofity in fuch matters (and this publica-
tion is intended for them alone) will be fo happy as
to clear up feveral difficulties, which appear now to
him infuperable. It muft be confeffed agaii}, that

the Editor may probably have often failed in tliofe
very points, which he fancies and flatters himfelf to
have elucidated, but this he is willing to leave to the
candour of the public.
Now in regard to the helps I mentioned ; there is
not much to be learnt from the Great Inthronization-
feafl of archbifliop Robert Winchelfea, A. iz95,
even if it were his ; but I rather think it belongs to
archbifliop William Warham, A. 1504*. Some life,
however, has been made of it.

tine’s, near Canterbury, A. 1309; and William
Thorne has inferted a lift of proviiions bought for the
feafl, with their prices, in his Chronicle b.
The Great Feaft at the Inthronization of George
.Nevile archbifhop of York, 6 Edward IV. is
printed by Mr. Hearne c, and has been of good
fervice.
a In Dr. Drake’s edition of archbifliop Parker, p. lxiii. it is
given to archbifliop Wincheliea : but fee Mr. Battely’s Append, to
Cantuaria Sacra, p. 27. or the Archaeologia, I. p. 330. and Ice-
land's Colle&anea, VI. p. 30. where it is again printed, and more at
large, and afcribed to Warham.

Elizabeth, queen of king Henry VII. was crowned
A. 1487, and the raeffes at the dinner, in two courfes,
are regiftered in the late edition of Leland’s Collec-
tenea, A. ijjod, and we have profited thereby.
The Lenten Inthronization-feafl of archbifhop
William Warham, A. 1504 e, given us at large by
Mr. Hearne f, has been alfo confulted.
There is a large catalogue of viands in Rabelais,
lib. iv. cap. 59. 60. And the Englifh tranflation of
Mr. Ozell affording little information, I had recourfe
to the French original, but not to much more advantage.
There is alfo a Royal Feaft at the wedding of the
earl of Devonfhire, in the Harleian Mile. N° 279,
and it has not been neglected.
Randle Holme, in his multifarious Academy of Ar-
mory, has an alphabet of terms and diili.es s ; but
though I have prefled him into the fervice, he has
not contributed much as to the more difficult points.
The Antiquarian Repertory, vol. II. p. 211, exhi-
bits an entertainment of the mayor of Rochefter,
A. 1460 ; but there is little to be learned from thence.
The prefent work was printed before N° 3 1 of the
Antiquarian Repertory, wherein fome ancient recipes
in Cookery are publifhed, came to the Editor’s hand.

I mu ft
[ XXXV "]
I mu ft not omit my acknowledgments to my learned
friend the prefent dean of Carlifle, to whom I ftand
indebted for his ufcful notes on the Northumberland-
Houfehold Book, as alfo for the book itfelf.
Our chief affiftance, however, has been drawn from
a MS belonging to the Editor, denoted, when cited,
by the fignature MS. Ed. It is a vellum mifcellany in
fmall quarto, and the part refpecling this fubject
confifts of ninety-one Englifli recipes (or Ilyins') in
cookery. Thefe are difpofed into two parts, and are
intituled, ‘ Hie incipiunt nniverfa fervicia tam de
‘ carnibus quam de piffibus.’ h The fecond part, re-
lates to the drefiing of filh, and other lenten fare,
though forms are alfo there intermixed which proper-
ly belong to flefti-days. This leads me to obferve,
that both here, and in the Roll, mefles are fo me times
accommodated, by making the neceffary alterations,
both to fiefli and fifli-days. 1 Now, though the fub-
jetfts of the MS are various, yet the hand-writing is
uniform ; and at the end of one of the tracts is added,
* Explicit malfa Compoti, Anno Dili M’° CCCmo
‘ otftogefimo primo ipfo die Felicis et Audatfti.’ k, i. e.
30 Aug. 1381, in the reign of Rich. II. The lan-
guage and orthography accord perfectly well with
this date, and the colle<ftion is confequently contem-
porary with our Roll, and was made chiefly, though
h It is pijjibus again in the title to the Second Part.
1 N37. 84. here N° 17. 35. 97.
k In the common calendars of our mifTals and breviaries, the
latter faint is called Jldaudlus, but in the Knlend. Roman, of Joh.
Fronto, Paris 1652, p. 126, he is written A.udaHns, as here; and
fee Martyrolog. lieda?, p. 414.
not
Z xxxvi ]
not altogether, for the ufe of great tables, as appear^
from th e Jlurgeon, and the great quantity of venifon
therein prefcribed for.
As this MS is fo often referred to in the anno-
tations, gloffary, and even in this preface, and is a
compilation of the fame date, on the fame fubjecf,
and in the fame language, it has been thought advife-
able to print it, and fubjoin it to the Roll; and the
rather, becaufe it really furnifhes a confiderable en-
largement on the fubjecl, and exhibits many forms
unnoticed in the Roll.
To conclude this tedious preliminary detail, though
unqueftionably a moil neceflary part of his duty, the
Editor can fcarcely forbear laughing at himfelf, when
he refle&s on his part labours, and recolledts thofe
lines of the poet Martial ;
Turpe ell difficiles habere nugas,
Et ftultus labor eft ineptiarum. II. 86.
and that poffibly mefdames Carter and Raff aid , with
twenty others, might have far better acquitted thein-
felves in the adminiftration of this province, than he
has done. He has this comfort and fatisfaclion, how-
ever, that he has done his beft ; and that fome con-
fiderable names amongft the learned, Humelbergius,
Torinus, Barthius, our countryman Dr. Lifter, Al-
meloveen, and others, have bellowed no lefs pains
in illuftrating an author on the fame fubjeft, and
fcarcely of more importance, the Pfcudo-Apicius.

fmali : a large parcel of them were found under the
floor of the hall of one of the Temples, about
1764, and were fo minute as to have droptat times
through the chinks or joints of the boards. Therd
were near 100 pair of ivory, fcarcemore than two
thirds as large as our modern ones. The hall was
built in the reign of Elizabeth. To quare is from
the Fr. quarrer ; and quayre or quaire , fubft. in

ADVERTISEMENT.
SINCE the foregoing Iheets were printed off, the
following very curious Rolls have happily fallen
into the Editor’s hand, by the favour of John Charles
Brooke, Efq. Somerfet Herald. They are extracted
from a MS. belonging to the family of Nevile of
Chevet, near Wakefield, com. Ebor. and thence
copied, under the direction of the Rev. Richard Kav,
D. D. Prebendary of Durham.
Thefe Rolls are fo intimately connected with our '
fubjedt, as exhibiting the difhes of which our Roll of
Cury teaches the drefling and preparation, that they
muff neceffarily be deemed a proper appendix to it.
They are moreover amufing, if not ufeful, in another
refpedt ; viz. as exhibiting the gradual prices of
provifions, from the dates of our more ancient lifts,
and the time when thefe Rolls were compofed, in
the reign of Henry VIII. For the further llluftra-
tion of this fubjedt, an extradt from the old Account-
Rook of Luton , 19 Hen. VIII. is fuper-added ; where
the prices of things in the South, at the fame period,
Y 2 may
C 164 ]
may be feen. And whoever pleafes to go further
into this matter of prices , may compare them with
the particulars and expence of a dinner at Stationer’s-
Hall, A. D. 1 556. which appeared in the St. James’s
Chronicle of April 22, 1780.
We cannot help thinking that, upon^all accounts,
the additions here prefented to our friends mull needs
prove exceedingly acceptable to them.
